[QUOTE="sworrior, post: 363271, member: 14410"] Haven't touched the boat in over a week. Working on a special project that takes about 12-15 hours a day which doesn't leave much time for building. I worked a bit tonight and started on the carpeting. I was able to get the front bench carpeted and the front deck. I'll post some pictures tomorrow. I'm stuck on where to put the battery. The large storage area in the bow (see earlier pics) is where I want to put the size 27 battery, but due to the front deck supports, it would have to go in the center so that it can be removed without uninstalling the front deck. This would severely limit my tackle storage (I want to have my cake and eat it too). One possible spot I could put the battery is if I cut a recess into the side of the bench seat. I would not be cutting all of the way through the bench, but I'm worried this would weaken the lateral support the bench provides to the hull. Any thoughts? [/QUOTE]
